Abstract- Directional drilling machine which can be

used based on drilling holes in various location and
movement and easily operation done with high
accuracy. Productivity can be improved by reducing
total machining time and reduced human effort and
reduced manufacturing cycle time.
Drill machines have been the heart of every industry.
Drilling holes in sheets and structures is a regular
industrial work. Perfect and well aligned drilling needs.
Some parts cannot be drilled using fixed drills due to
low space between drill bit and drill bed. We need to
use hand drills in such cases but hand drills have
alignment problems while drilling. So here we propose a
360 degree flexible drill that can be mounted on a table

 Bearing :-
A bearing is a machine element that constrains
relative motion to only the desired motion, and
reduces friction between moving parts. The design of
the bearing may, for example, provide for free linear
movement of the moving part or for free rotation
around a fixed axis; or, it may prevent a motion by
controlling the vectors of normal forces that bear on
the moving parts. Most bearings facilitate the desired
motion by minimizing friction. Bearings are
classified broadly according to the type of operation,
the motions allowed, or to the directions of the loads
(forces) applied to the parts. Rotary bearings hold
rotating components such as shafts or axles within
mechanical systems, and transfer axial and radial
 Drill Chuck :-
A drill chuck is a specialized clamp designed to hold
drill bits in place while they are being rotated by the
drill. The chucks nearly always have three or four
jaws that press down on the drill bit so that it won't
slip when it pressed against a surface that it needs to
penetrate. They can also be used to hold bits and
tools heads of other rotary tools. Once a bit is
inserted into the chuck, the jaws are tightened on the
bit by rotating a threaded screw. The screw threads

and the threads on the backs of the jaw pieces are on

an angled surface. By turning the screw to the right,
the screw moves down the tapered surface to the
thicker area, this causes the jaws to press against the
bit.

 Drill Bit :-
In which drill bit are used of twisted type drill. It is of
material Carbon Steel. Its diameter is of 2mm. This is
used to make drill on wood, plastic and light metals.
Drill bits are cutting tools used to remove material to
create holes, almost always of circular cross-section.
Drill bits come in many sizes and shapes and can
create different kinds of holes in many different
materials. In order to create holes drill bits are
usually attached to a drill, which powers them to cut
through the work piece, typically by rotation. The
drill will the drill bit is usually between 1:1 and 1:10.
Much higher ratios are possible (e.g., "aircraft-
length" twist bits, pressured-oil gun drill bits, etc.),
but the higher the ratio, the greater the technical
challenge of producing good work
 Roller :-
It’s a support the arm or connecting rod for proper
movement of drilling machine.
WORKING
 In which all the component is mounted on base
of model. This support the arm to move freely.
 Arm rotates manually when where it is required.
 Motor are mounted on Arm which moves where
drilling work want to be done on workpiece.
 Put drill bit point on workpiece area where drill
is required.
 Switch on the motor head which is require to ON
for starting the motor.
 This rotates motor and also bit rotates.
 After make hole where on work piece is
required.
 Then OFF the switch and motor stop.
